- Description
It would be great feature I think if you could quickly mention someone in the wiki pages and anywhere else using syntax like
@johndoeand after page is saved it would make a link to their user info and send a notification to them that they were mentioned on the object.It should also respect the "show realName" preference when enabled.
Requirements:
- Needs to check if the @ is at the beginning of line, or surrounded by whitespace to not catch regular e-mail addresses
- Needs to match only one @ followed immediately by the username (login name)
- Optionally it would be nice if it matched also mentions in common parenthesis like
(@username)without need to surround them by space
